More Companies Tightening Remote-Work Eligibility
New research shows that the number of companies willing to allow all employees to work remotely fell to 26% to 39% between March and September 2021 and 70% of survey respondents planned to institute policies that tighten up remote work eligibility and onsite requirements—up from 60% in March.
MRI Software partnered with CoreNet Global to survey a group of close to 200 tenants and landlords from a range of industries globally.
At the same time, the results also show that, overall, nearly 80% of responding commercial occupiers have increased the availability of remote work. Some 69% of respondents said that the worldwide shift to remote working during the pandemic has fundamentally changed their long-term approach to space usage—only slightly down from 71% in March.
